WHY

Why Is It Needed?

At many manufacturing sites, scattered data and low operational visibility waste time and resources.

01 Inefficient work from manual data management

02 Lack of individual serial-level traceability from raw materials to final products

03 Data mismatches between ERP and the shop floor, and between production planning and execution

04 Lack of real-time visibility into process changes, inventory, and bottlenecks

Factova MES connects ERP and equipment to unify shop-floor data, providing the foundation for efficient and reliable production operations.

WHERE

Where Is It Used?

Target industries: Automotive parts manufacturing, medical devices, F&B, and more

Any manufacturing industry with frequent process changes, high demand for product and process history traceability, or where real-time production management and quality response are critical

Target Customers

Mid-sized and small manufacturers (SMB) Companies adopting MES for the first time or considering upgrading or migrating an existing system

KEY CAPABILITIES

Features of Factova MES

Factova MES offers a packaged Core of essential functions plus optional extensions.

01 An MES that faithfully implements the ISA-95 (IEC 62264) standard model

Implements the Enterprise-Site-Area-Line equipment hierarchy and production operations standards, so the system can scale and integrate on a solid foundation for any industry or size.

02 Configurable Setting

Analyzes business cases likely in each industry and provides them as master data settings, controlling key behaviors (process type, inspection method, flow control) through configuration, so business needs are met by combining settings without custom development.

03 Setup Wizard

Automatically configures master data with recommended values based on industry best practices; users modify only what they need to complete a master data setup that is ready to run immediately.

Stronger Traceability & Regulatory Compliance Systematic product and process history management, electronic signatures, and automated audit trails support compliance with strict regulatory requirements. Fast tracing and root-cause identification during a recall reduce legal risk and brand damage.

Inventory Visibility Resolves data mismatches between the shop floor and systems to improve inventory accuracy and enable precise control of raw material and WIP flow. Minimizes losses for items where shelf life and expiration dates matter.

Quality Stabilization and Yield Improvement Block process errors in real time to reduce rework costs. Shorten line changeover times and equipment downtime to raise production yield.

Improved Process Operating Efficiency Establish work standards through digital work instructions and real-time process control. Real-time monitoring quickly reveals process changes and bottlenecks, enabling stable production operations.
